My bet is that the 2014 Spark EV LT2 w/ CCS will someday be a highly sought after EV in the collectibles market. The most direct comparison I could think of would be a 1959 Morris Mini.
The driving dynamics give it an endearing quality that will keep it well loved over time. Future DC-FC infrastructure will make its Level 2 charging weakness less significant. Also, the interior of all old cars feel cheap so that will get ignored progressively with time.
As well as these superlatives:
-GM's first production BEV.
-First EV available with CCS in the US
-First use of what I think will become a legendary powertrain
-First EV to be the cheapest overall car to own
-Most ironically perfect name
-Best vehicle for embarrassing old muscle cars
